In a year forever marked by the June 2013 flood event, the residents and developers of East Village showed a strength and generosity that isn’t apparent in everyday life. When the long-standing homes of East Village seniors – Murdoch Manor, King Tower and East Village Place – were compromised by rising waters, CMLC staff showed their true colours in their unscripted, far-beyond-the-call-of-duty participation in efforts to evacuate, comfort and return home some of the neighbourhood’s most vulnerable residents. The infrastructure of East Village proved resilient in 2013 because the flood plain has been raised up to six feet in some places since 2007. But it’s the resiliency and character of the people – residents, business owners, CMLC staff, the East Village Neighbourhood Association and many others – that we remember long after the waters receded. CMLC’s hybrid retail strategy, designed to attract both destination and niche retailers, drew the country’s largest real estate trust and the city’s most enterprising culinary entrepreneurs.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • Copyright City of Calgary
    PREFACE The City of Calgary Archives is a section of the City Clerk's Department. The Archives was established in 1981. The descriptive system currently in use was established in 1991. The Archives Society of Alberta has endorsed the use of the Bureau of Canadian Archivists' Rules for Archival Description as the standard of archival description to be used in Alberta's archival repositories. In acting upon the recommendations of the Society, the City of Calgary Archives will endeavour to use RAD whenever possible and to subsequently adopt new rules as they are announced by the Bureau. The focus of the City of Calgary Archives' descriptive system is the series level and, consequently, RAD has been adapted to meet the descriptive needs of that level. RAD will eventually be used to describe archival records at the fonds level. The City of Calgary Archives creates inventories of records of private agencies and individuals as the basic structural finding aid to private records. Private records include a broad range of material such as office records of elected municipal officials, records of boards and commissions funded in part or wholly by the City of Calgary, records of other organizations which function at the municipal level, as well as personal papers of individuals. All of these records are collected because of their close relationship to the records of the civic government, and are subject to formal donor agreements. The search pattern for information in private records is to translate inquiries into terms of type of activity, to link activity with agencies which are classified according to activity, to peruse the appropriate inventories to identify pertinent record series, and then to locate these series, or parts thereof, through the location register.

  • The History of the Arusha Centre
    The History of the Arusha Centre The Arusha Centre was founded in 1972, named after Julius Nyerere's speech about global justice issues in Arusha, Tanzania in 1969. We have been a meeting place for community members and activists throughout our history, offering programs, a resource library, funding, space for meetings, and affordable access to event supplies, button-making, stilts and costumes, tents, amplifiers, printing, and support. The Centre is an active tennant in the CommunityWise Resource Centre, a hub for nonprofits in Calgary providing inclusive, affordable, and equitable space and community development programs to support and strengthen diverse grassroots and non-profit members. Michael Miller-Lajeunesse contribute a grassroots community-inspired art piece to Arusha’s office symbolizing community connections, collaboration, and sustainability. Pre-1972: Early Roots Carol Sherwood, Arusha's first staff person explained: “We didn't start in 1972, but a couple of years before that. Our roots go back to the Calgary and District International Society ... who brought you the 'Miles for Millions' fundraising walks.” The staff at the CDIS wanted to incorporate development education in the walks to educate young people about “the split between the world's rich and poor.” 1972: Alliances Forming In the spring of 1972, the Cross Cultural Learner Centre from London, Ontario visited Calgary and provided an example to CIDA of a model for how they could effectively educate people in Alberta about developing countries. Thus, the core people who came together to start a Centre in Calgary were from: (1) the Miles for Millions group, and (2) a Local Initiatives project named 'NIDERK' sponsored by Calgary Interfaith.
